| Pune Warriors vs. Rajasthan Royals Live Score & Match Updates : Match 13 IPL 2013 Posted: 11 Apr 2013 05:20 AM PDT Pune Warriors that is a team with the most high profile players is not able to perform till now. There defeat by the mediocre competitors is a great blow for their morale. This time Pune will be battling against Rajasthan Royals who are in their full form on their home ground on April 11, 2013 at Subrata Roy Sahara Stadium, Pune. After crushing Kolkata by 19 runs on Monday , Royals are full of confidence and it will not be easier for the hosts to clinch win from them. Pune Warriors From the last two seasons Pune is trembling in its IPL performance and things are no better for them this time around. If we go by the performance of the team till now Warriors have been disappointing. Team captain Angelo Mathews has to relook his playing strategy and there is a need for amendment in the batting order. With under performance of the opening players Robin Uthappa and Manish Pandey, he needs to bring in someone who can give Warriors a breakthrough and Luke Wright can be the one. Including him mean to drop down a name from the existing list most probably that of Mitchell Marsh, but it is need of the hour for Warriors to perform. Marlon Samuels, Yuvraj Singh and Ross Taylor are potential players and they need to pump up their performance if they want to book a place for Pune in semis and Final match. Steve Smith's absence from the team is also something unexpected and this he may get to against the Rajasthan Royals. On the bowling front teams seems to be pretty balanced with presence of Dinda, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and skipper Angelo Matthews. It may be the scene that Dinda was not effective against Punjab but it will be immature to underestimate him just on the basis of a single match. He is a deadly bowler who can lead Warriors for a victory. Rahul Sharma and Samuels complete the baling order of the team. Rajasthan Royals Royals are no big team with flashy names. But still Royals are the players who know how to provide their best for leading the team towards victory. After putting up an appealing show with their bat in the couple of matches being played by them till now Rajasthan is no easy opponent to face. Localites Ajinkya Rahane, Stuart Binny and wicketkeeper Dishant Yagnik are the performers who have gone beyond their expected limits to hail the Royals flag. Rajasthan’s core Rahul Dravid is the man who is centre of attraction along with Brad Hodge is the real strength of the baling order. Shane Watson who has still not showcased his play but if got in line with his potential then Pune Warriors seems to be out of strength to contain him for sure. On the bowling front Rajasthan is no less than any other IPL team. Shaun Tait who brilliantly bowled against Kolkata, West Indies player Kevon Cooper and domestic bowler Siddharth Trivedi altogether have showcased their team play assisting each other at crucial points. Rahul Shukla who took two wickets off consecutive deliveries is a critical bowler not sparing even players like Jacques Kallis. The absence of a quality spinner may be compensated by Dravid by replacing Sreesanth with young Ajit Chandlia avoiding any kind of overseas combination disturbance in the team. Venue and Timing The team will be playing the 13th IPL 6 match at Roy Sahara Stadium, Pune on April 11, 213 that will commence at 8:00pm IST. Probable Team Squads Pune Warriors: A Mathews(c), R Uthappa(wk), M Pandey (or)L Wright, M Samuels, Y Singh, R Taylor/S Smith, A Nayar, M Marsh(or)M Manhas (or)R Gomez, B Kumar, A Dinda, R Sharma Rajasthan Royals: R Dravid(c), S Watson, A Rahane, S Binny, K Cooper, S Sreesanth/A Chandlia, R Shukla, S Tait, B Hodge, D Yagnik(wk), S Trivedi Pune Warriors vs. Rajasthan Royals Live Score
